It was a split response...

But I see benefit myself.

It’s neither right or wrong - just something that Is now possible.

- I don't use it myself yet, but wont have any issue in using it where needed

Thanks for the praise. It was heated/ much debated feature that I felt strongly about but got equal and opposite strong pushback. It was a ride for sure. What I hope gets accepted next is "[function modules](https://github.com/node-red/node-red/pull/5901)" and "[MQTT Request Node](https://github.com/node-red/node-red/pull/5860)"
